Canon EF 35-105mm f/3.5-4.5 Lens

An old lens from Canon's film camera days. It has its origins in the FD mount. The optical scheme was translated across to the EOS system in 1987 and remained in production until 1994. It has a trombone zooming action. On a crop sensor camera the field of view goes from 55mm to 170mm. The fashion photographer Erik Madigan Heck favours this lens, which I discovered after buying one. Mine fell apart and I bought a replacement. I love this lens.
'Amateur Photographer' magazine of 6 May 1989 tested the lens, remarking, 'The optical performance of this lens confirms that it is fully usable at all focal lengths and apertures. The central definition and image quality are almost constant at any given aperture over the entire zoom range. Although stopping down improves results, it has too little effect to make it worthwhile.'
The price of this lens was £209 in May, 1989.
